Ingredients

Scale

Filling

  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/2 cup fresh strawberries, finely chopped

Sandwich

  • 8 slices white bread, crusts removed
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
  • Vegetable oil, for frying (about 1 cup)
  • Powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the filling: Mix softened cream cheese with sugar until smooth and creamy. Finely chop the fresh strawberries and gently fold them into the cream cheese mixture to create the cheesecake filling.
  2. Assemble the sandwiches: Remove crusts from the white bread slices. Spread a generous layer of the cream cheese and strawberry filling onto one slice, then top with another slice to form a sandwich. Press firmly to seal without squeezing out the filling.
  3. Seal and trim the edges: Use a fork to crimp around the edges of each sandwich, sealing the filling inside and creating a decorative pattern that prevents leakage during frying.
  4. Dip in egg wash: Beat the egg lightly and pour into a shallow bowl. Dip each sandwich, coating all sides evenly to ensure a golden crust when fried.
  5. Fry until golden: Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat, filling to cover half the sandwich height. Fry each sandwich for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain excess oil on paper towels.
  6. Add finishing touches: After cooling slightly, dust the sandwiches lightly with powdered sugar. Serve warm to enjoy the creamy, melty center with fresh strawberry bursts.

Notes

  • Use chilled cream cheese and strawberries before assembling to keep the filling firm during frying.
  • Fry sandwiches in small batches to maintain oil temperature and ensure even crispiness.
  • Maintain medium heat to avoid burning the crust before the filling warms through.
  • Seal edges tightly with a fork to prevent filling leaks.
  • Serve promptly to enjoy the best crunch and flavor.
